Shopify is the hottest e-commerce platform right now. And that's quite normal! With over 15 years of development and e-commerce behind them, the founders of Shopify know what they are doing!
Why choose Shopify?
Shopify is, in our opinion, the best e-commerce platform in the world and it is not the 800,000 e-commerce sites under Shopify that will contradict us. But why choose Shopify and why is this solution so good?
Here are 5 reasons we love Shopify!
Shopify is easy!
Attention, simple does not mean basic, quite the contrary. Simple means: you can work with it every day without tearing your hair out. We configure something, it works all the time. No need to fix bugs, fix or pay developers any less for maintenance. No need to pay for servers or keep them up to date, Shopify takes care of that.
No need to update, change version or invest in security. In short, by taking care of all the technical part, Shopify allows merchants to focus on their business.
Shopify is flexible!
Before, only open source e-commerce solutions could offer so much flexibility. Now, with Shopify, we have the same flexibility as an open source e-commerce solution but with Shopify security and quality.
Do you need a product import, a connection with a logistician, a specialized module? Almost everything is possible on Shopify in a secure and controlled environment thanks to the 19 different APIs and its exceptional flexibility.
Shopify is thousands of applications
Remember the app revolution with Apple's APPstore? Well the Appstore Shopify is also powerful, but specialized in e-commerce.
Thousands of Shopify apps so you can customize your e-commerce site easily and quickly.
No need to reinvent the wheel every time! You can use the application already created to go faster.
Be careful, not all applications are equal and it is not very smart to unnecessarily overload your site with thousands of applications. Choosing them well and therefore essential. It is also part of our job at Pikka: guiding you in the development of your Shopify site.
Shopify is international
Do you want to create an international site? Shopify offers by default a global Cloud platform that will allow you to offer an incomparable quality of service to all your customers, regardless of their position on the planet.
Many plugins are also there to translate your pages and products more or less automatically.
And to launch international campaigns, you can use other applications to be connected to all the foreign traffic sources you need.
In short, going international is extremely simple with Shopify, there are so many opportunities for you to expand your online presence and develop your business.
Shopify is more economical than open source
This sentence is surprising and yet it is more and more true every day! Open source, which seemed like an affordable alternative, turns out to be very expensive for many merchants. Between server costs that can explode to hold the load during sales peaks such as sales, technical problems, updates, maintenance and quite simply the cost of creating e-commerce sites by agencies...
Shopify, with its integrated approach and technology that avoids reinventing the wheel each time, saves time and money. We also see it every time we make a quote for a Shopify merchant site , it's often much more economical!
Switching to Shopify is cost effective for all of our customers. Some of them even saved 80% of their technical budget in 1 year of Shopify!
In short, we could still list dozens of reasons why we love Shopify but if you want to know more, you can contact our team for a demonstration of the possibilities of Shopify for your e-commerce!
